There’s present-day Rick, going to war with Negan. Then there’s future Rick, who appears *much* older with a cane and a significantly grayer beard and hair. And lastly, there’s Rick with bloodshot eyes, but it’s not exactly clear where he fits into the timeline.

But also, are these even “time periods,” or could these be dream or fantasy sequences, or hallucinations? Could some of this be real, and other parts be imagined? These questions are just the tip of the iceberg.

Naturally, Twitter lit up and expressed its confusion about the “time jump” — and tried to process what the hell was going on.

Since this is just the start of the season, we have *plenty* of time to work through these different time periods, fantasies, or whatever else they could be. And of course, there are the comics to help us through this difficult and confusing time.
